About us
Originating in 1906, Citygate Network (formerly known as the Association of Gospel Rescue Missions) is North America’s oldest and largest community of independent, faith-based crisis shelters and life-transformation centers. In most U.S. cities, a member of Citygate Network is the most comprehensive homeless services provider, and in some cities, it is the only homeless services provider. Our member organizations are staffed by diverse, faith-focused followers of Jesus who carry out their objectives through various programs, all of which generally coincide with the eight “S” words of life-transformation. These individuals inspire and energize each other in exercising their religious convictions. Guided by their beliefs, they conduct all of their activities out of a biblically-based perspective and calling. Foundational is a belief by faith that Jesus of Nazareth was marvelously and simultaneously God and man—someone whose sinless life, death, burial, and resurrection are the basis for understanding and living life according to God’s plan. This makes offering help and hopes to people in destitute conditions and desperate situations an exciting endeavor because it is essentially a way of proclaiming and achieving what God wants: that His Kingdom should begin to emerge, right here on earth, just as it already exists in heaven. (Matthew 6:10)

💪 The Mental Price Construction Workers Pay Construction workers face a high-pressure, physically demanding environment daily, which significantly impacts their mental health. A recent study revealed that 83 percent of these mostly male laborers have experienced mental health issues. Long hours, chronic pain, and extreme working conditions contribute to a higher risk of drug and alcohol abuse, with a suicide rate four times higher than the general population. An Atlanta-based construction supply company with over 10,000 employees has taken proactive steps by establishing a mental health employee resource group to promote conversation and increase awareness about resources. In its first year, nearly 500 employees across 49 states have participated, with overwhelmingly positive feedback.

Check out this New York Times opinion piece about our very own Citygate Network Member, @WaterStreetMission! Matthew Desmond, renowned author of 'Evicted' and 'Poverty By America,' recently spent an insightful day at Water Street, touring their facilities and conducting in-depth interviews with our guests. His article is part of a larger multi-media piece by the Times on homelessness. In his piece, Matthew shares his perspective on Water Street's impactful work, comparing it to other initiatives he has encountered throughout his career, saying "I think Water Street can be seen as a model, not only for what homeless shelters can aspire to but also for how we can rethink anti-poverty programs in general, making sure those programs are delivered in such a way that people feel affirmed, feel valued." His observations highlight not only the incredible efforts at Water Street but also the broader mission of our Citygate Network members. Together, we emphasize value, dignity, and a holistic approach to transformation. Take a moment to read Matthew's piece and gain insight into the powerful work being done at Water Street and across our network. 🌟 👉 Read the full story - https://t.ly/iH0Cx #CitygateNetwork #WaterStreetMission #MatthewDesmond #Homelessness #Transformation #ValueAndDignity #HolisticApproach
